the birth story of sweet Emery Drew! It was a rainy May morning when I got the call that it would be the day! …

I love all births but this one is extra special. You see, Caitlin and Tyler are my first bride and groom to book me for their birth story. I can’t really put into words how much it means to me that a couple would continue to trust me again and again with some of the most special memories in their life.

I photographed their wedding about 2 years ago. (And yes, the previous post is about Tyler’s brother and his family) I love these two a whole bunch! When I found out Caitlin was pregnant I was over the moon excited for them and when she asked me to photograph their Birth Story I think I about died of excitement!

I’ve known this sweet little family for a few years now, ever since Zac’s brother got married! They are the kind of people you just enjoy being around because they are so kind and sweet. I actually had the privilege of doing maternity photos for them when they were expecting their first baby boy so it was so exciting when Bri contacted me to tell their Birth Story for baby boy #2! 

I’m back again! And it’s with another beautiful birth story!! 

This one is so special to me because Em is one of my closest friends and our friendship actually grew because of our passion for healthy living, organic foods, home/natural birth, and of course, Jesus!

I have known both Evan and Rachel for almost my whole life. Rachel is my cousin and we grew up made three-tenths of a mile from each other. Our families went to church together and were pretty close so we would see each other at family parties/picnics and we sometimes spent the night together. Evan […]

Over the past couple years Heather and Jordan have become good friends. You see, Heather was my neighbor growing up but she was homeschooled so we never knew each other. We both went off to college at Liberty University, still not knowing each other. My dad ran into her dad one day and they realized […]

This year for Father’s Day I decided to go back through all of my photos from the past few months and find my favorites of my favorite three guys…Mike, my dad, and Popaw. These three mean the world to me. They each are so special to me and each have made me a better person […]

A couple weeks ago I got a call that started out a little strange.

“Hi Emily, I have something I need you to photograph but no one can know about it.”

That can only mean one thing….A PROPOSAL!
